Not quite sure what you mean by the Jets running game not producing. They're averaging 115 yds/game, which is the middle of the pack in the NFL (15th overall). Thomas Jones is averaging 4.4 yards/carry. Leon Washington is holding is own as well, 5.7 yards/carry. While Jones and Washington are no superstars, they have both helped the Jets get to 4-3, despite Favre's best efforts of giving the ball away (11 INTs, 2 Lost fumbles).

Marcus Mason will be nothing more to the Jets than a warm body in case something happens to Jones or Washington, just as Jesse Chatman was filling that role before he was put on IR.
